Speaking in the scientific and metaphysical "Language of this Age"...
Actually, from a purely scientifically valid metaphysical POV, and
disregarding all the mystical anthropomorphic references to a "personalized" LOGOS or
"GOD" idea... If we look at the diagrams of the "woven" spheres (*globes*)
within spheres within spheres, etc., (See web pages below) that emanate from the
"whirling" energy ("Laya Point" or "spinergy") of the LOGOS (source of the
"WORD," Verbum, or *holographic vibrational interference patterns* containing all
WISDOM and KNOWLEDGE)... And, considering that the ABSOLUTE (outside of all
metric time and space) *Zero Point* of such Cosmic origin is the rootless root of
CONSCIOUSNESS or SPIRIT) -- we can see how simple (and impersonal) it all is.
(*---* = italics)
But first, we must understand that; Since any spherical or "global" space has
three *lines of direction* (N-S, E-W, Up-Down) that cross perpendicular to
each other at the center... Therefore, the primal global "spinergy" at any
zero-point has three primary poles or directions of rotation. (However, here, for
purposes of simplifying our visualization, we are only considering one axisof
such rotation.) In actuality, each LOGO (of the *three* LOGOS) has reference
to one of these polar directions. And, each such polar direction has three
*zero points* of reference, one, common to their crossing centers, and two at
the extreme ends of their extension and termination in infinity. Thus, there
are seven points in all -- which are the basis of the "Diamond Heart" geometry
as well the seven "rays" of consciousness or "Lineage's" that represent the
true fundamental metaphysical reality. See the 6-diamond (UniOmniForm) crystal
diagram (which can be infinitely divided or expanded into smaller or larger
diamonds without changing its overall octahedron shape) at:
http://users.aol.com/uniwldarts/uniworld.artisans.guild/solwldcrystposter.html
This is why Plato quoting Pythagorus said, "The universe geometrizes."
(Escher couldn't have said it better, although he certainly knew how to illustrate
it. :-)
We must also consider such "Consciousness" represented by the zero-point
itself, as pure [abstract] and *impersonal* AWARENESS as well as the link to
WILL... And, thereby avoid personalizing Spirit on the three higher monadic
(ATMA-BUDDHI-MANAS) or *logoic* planes that are above or preceding the plane of the
lower Astral mind or KAMA-MANAS.
Therefore, Consciousness as *awareness* is simply the unconditioned
*witness*... And *will* is the impersonal Force inherent in the "spinergy" that can
only be applied through the action of *desire* focussed through the MIND --
whether it be that of the universal MAHAT or Buddhi-Manas (higher Mind) or the
individualized reflection of it in the Kama-Manas (lower mind)
However, we must not be confused, since from a metaphysical point of view,
i.e., looking at it from the point source within, outward -- this entire system
is the reverse of how the pseudo theosophists (and of course, all
theologists:-) see it (from the outside looking in)... Since, as HPB pointed out and as
both Hermes and Plato explained it (and some later writers missed) -- the inside
is the outside and the outside is the inside. And, therefore, the *I AM* or
Self of any so called "God" up to the highest LOGO is equivalent to the *I AM*
or self of any fully conscious Human being.
This *involutional* process (before *Chaos* leads to *Cosmos* and the
universe of forms begin its *evolution") -- ruled by fundamental LAWS of
multidimensional geometry -- is perfectly illustrated, and can be easily visualized, if we
follow the Mobius path of the spiral vortex that forms each FIELD or PLANE of
consciousness in successive fractal iterations, both outwardly and inwardly,
simultaneously, like bubbles within bubbles within bubbles, etc. Thus, from
the scientific POV, the Universe both expands and contracts, while forming both
the "dark matter" and the "light matter," simultaneously.
Therefore, on any plane or spherical surface, the spiritual field or ATMA is
the closest to the Zero-point of any form (and thus hidden within the space
between the primal "Atoms" or fundamental particles of both *Astral* and
*Physical* space)... And, at the same time, stretches the furthest infinitedistance
from the Central zero or (laya) point of Cosmic origin... Thus, *containing*
and, simultaneously inwardly supporting every particle and form within its
overall circumference on every "coadunate but NOT consubstantial" PLANE of
consciousness.
*Personalization* or personification only begins to occur on the lower planes
of both the *light* and *dark* Cosmic levels -- after, in our visible
space-time, the first seven DHYAN CHOHANS appear on the *light* side... And, we must
*not* imagine such "personalization" both on the higher Cosmic MONAD planes
that comprise the first three LOGOS (Note: the word "Logos" is plural) or on the
planes of the "Dhyan Chohans" that are part of the *Third Logos* (our
physical metric space-time). Only, when these "Chohans" are incarnated in mankind,
can they be personified.
Note, also, that the *information* or KNOWLEDGE these primal GLOBES carry (in
their holographic interference patterns of vibrational energies) on their
surfaces, represent the noumenal *matrices* or "Genes"of all the *individual*
forms that appear on every plane. (See my previous posts for an explanation
of how the dual rays of primal force that weave every globe, like balls of
twisted yarn, forms these spiraling genetic *ladders* that are -- as above,so
below -- analogous to the DNA molecular ladders of amino acid bases on the
physical plane.) Also, see DNA pictures at:
http://academy.d20.co.edu/kadets/lundberg/dna.html
Note also, that the WISDOM of the LOGOS is the noumenal *root* of these
phenomenal patterns which are based on its immutable LAWS of KARMA (cycles and
periodicity) that govern their actions-reactions... And, such WISDOM is the
inherent nature of the "Whirling" or *Spinergy* of the Primal *Zero Laya Point*
origin of each of the LOGOS (or primal triune Monads on the Cosmic Spiritual,
Astral and Physical planes). HPB called this "spinergy" the "Abstract Motion of
Absolute Space" which is prior to the manifestation of the LOGOS or any
substantial *being* following them, in accord with fundamental law... And, guided
only later by the conscious *light* Dhyan Chohans, "Builders," "Cosmocreators,"
"Architects of the Universe," or "Great Masons" -- with the help of both
*impersonal* MAHAT (Cosmic mind) and FOHAT (Cosmic force).
The fundamental error in the interpretation below this dissertation (not to
say that their general overview is entirely wrong) is the personalization or
personification of the LOGOS -- which leads every following writer who bases
their theories on these interpretations, to make a Religion out of Theosophy
based on a Ruling Hierarchy and a carnal Messiah -- which completely deniesthe
individuality, liberty, and free will of all *equal* human beings (as spiritual
entities), and foments the creation of a dictatorial ruling elite as Mankind's
Governmental agencies. This is the "wrong view" of most writers following
HPB, such as AB, AAB, CWL. etc. who profess to reinterpret the teachings ofthe
ancient Masters according to their personal religious beliefs that
anthropomorphize the higher Consciousness or Spirit of the Universal Monad and its
reflection in the "Dhyan Chohans" -- who initially *guide* the building of the
phenomenal universe and, ultimately become incarnated in Mankind as *Masters* (but
not *rulers*). Therefore, there cannot be a "personal GOD" other than the
"Ray" of the Universal Consciousness that can be directly experienced within each
of us. (Our direct zero-point center of individual awareness of Self, and,
indirectly, of the reflected [coadunate or entangled] points of non local
sensory perception.) This implies that everything in the universe is *conscious* in
one degree or another. For an explanation of how we "see" -- go to:
http://tellworld.com/Astro.Biological.Coenergetics
ALL this, BTW, is fully explained in the "Secret Doctrine," for those
intuitive students able to read "in and around the words and between the lines" -- as
HPB clearly pointed out. To see how Einstein must have seen it, go to:

I hope this clarifies things a bit and gives us some food for further thought.
